Could be that Xp is saving your data for the quick restore or just that the screen
saver is using the drive, I know webshots screen saver has always used my drive for
the large pics it uses.

More than likely you are running McAfee VirusScan on your system, (or another virus
program) and it is set to scan in the background. You may also have a file sharing
program running, like Kazaa, and someone is downloading a file.
